Olympus VN-2100PC Digital Voice Recorder with microphone

from: Olympus

August 21, 2007
Have to agree with Caz, this device does exactly what it says on the tin. I was told to buy a voice recorder (for training purposes at work); I must admit that I was unaware that tape-less devices existed (luddite that I am) but this has proved to be a whole lot better than I had expected. It's so simple and so efficient. I didn't even need to use the instruction manual - but then, I'm a bloke. Wearing a suit it's easy to slip it into my breast pocket where it's just about unseen yet it can record the conversations that take place in reasonable quality - could be used to blackmail someone I should imagine but I haven't gotten around to that yet. And setting up the software on my PC was simplicity itself, enabling me to transfer the recorded ... Read More:

I'm happy with this product!
Only a little tihings, but is not effect how is work!
1: The memory! I think they sud put biger memory than 128MB! In X.HighQuality, is only 5h and 40min! (but if you want to joy the record, you sod use this!)
2: For the back cover of this recorder, they use a poor quality silver paint! so on the first time in your pocet, some all redy come of! Not bedly, just at the sharper corners!
But after all this I still gonna recomed this for You!

Olympus ME-15 Tie Clip Microphone

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Voice Recorders
from: Olympus

October 19, 2005
General description

Although this is a mono-microphone, it's very well suited for general higher- quality voice recordings with a WS -class 'Olympus' digital voice recorder. The microphone takes some power from the device as it operates, so its fidelity is better than you would think from just looking at the size of the device. Its colour is black and with a metallic tie clip, so it's easy to place. I would however avoid getting the microphone wet or subjecting it to strong impacts.

Why use this microphone?

If you use an Olympus digital recorder, other people as well have noticed that it's hard to boost the input levels for recordings that use 'Voice-activation'. If you apply this microphone, the input ... Read More:

Sony Compact Tape Recorder Silver

I used this machine for recording interviews as part of my social science studies and, although considerably cheaper when I bought mine, it is a good basic tape recorder with good sound quality and an excellent range. I don't see any point spending more money if this is the kind of thing you are going to use it for.

Olympus WS-311M Digital Voice Recorder

i just got this recorder and find it superb. the device is tiny, light and "dupont lighter"-stylish. i particularly like the metal buttons, much more tactile that plastic one - i know it is a small thing. I like the five-line display which provides a lot of information compared to another device i used.
now for the great part, the integrated micros are great, and the stereo effect is really a bonus. This is especially the case if you later listen with earphones.
the time elapsed versus the length of the file are displayed clearly and legibly.
i did invest in a little carry case and i am glad i did because that way i can throw the recorder into a bag and still keep it pristine.
i find the 'hold' button more positive ... Read More:

Olympus WS-331M Digital Voice Recorder

It does what it claims.

This is the second Olympus we've bought; our previous one was the 1Gig WS320M, now a year old and still working beautifully in everyday use.

If one sets the record quality to be the highest (ST XQ), with the Bass-Cut filter off and the mics in Conference mode, then the recordings make excellent stereo when played back on a PC with good speakers (eg I use Logitech X230).

The quality is also good enough through the (surprisingly durable) supplied earpieces, with a bit of bass EQ added, if you have ear-holes big enough (17mm dia) to accommodate them! But I use my trusty old AKG240 headphones, which are far more comfortable (if a bit lacking in sensitivity for this machine) ... Read More:

Olympus WS-300M Digital Voice Recorder and Music Player

This is definately 5 star kit, it is a bit delicate, but its tiny and weighs nothing so what can you do? I keep mine in a spectacle case in some foam so its well protected. To record live music is a little outside its capability as the music is boosted in quiet parts and clipped in loud parts and doesn't sound great when heard back, shame you can't set the record levels but then it is a voice recorder.

Zoom H2 Handy Recorder WAV/MP3 inc. 512MB Card, Cables Stand etc..

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Voice Recorders
from: ZOOM


Simple to use and very versatile.Admittedly i haven't tried the competition but this is as good as minidisc at the very least!.Using a plug-in mic,as one reviewer noted,is not very good.But one reason i bought it is because i got fed up with carrying external mic's and leads around all the time.With this beauty it's a case of pressing the record button twice and off you go.At £60 cheaper than its nearest rival it's a steal.

Olympus TP-7 Multi Purpose Adapter

from: Olympus

For occasional and mobile recording, this device does the job quite well. Its not the most comfortable solution though - so I doubt you would choose it for daily use. I have plugged it in to my Olympus voice recorder and directly into my laptop for recording - both work fine. It sits OK under my telephone headset too. Came with 3 rubber ear inserts of different sizes. Its fitted with a mono 3.5mm miniplug but adapters for stereo 3.5mm and mono 2.5mm were also supplied with mine.

I have never used a digital voice recorder before so was very pleased to find this one so simple to use. The sound quality is great and it is nice and compact. Is suppled with the batterries so you can start using it immediately. Very pleased!
